对于埋嵌在薄膜材料中的纳米颗粒,在其生长过程中总是不可避免地伴随着应变场的产生,而这种应变场的分布能反映纳米颗粒的结构变化,纳米颗粒结构与它的物理性能有重要的关系.研究埋嵌在不同薄膜材料中的纳米颗粒生长过程中的应变场分布对于调控纳米颗粒的物理性能有着重要的意义.本文利用有限元算法分别计算了埋嵌在非晶氧化铝薄膜和非晶二氧化硅薄膜材料中的砷化镓纳米颗粒生长过程中的应变场分布.砷化镓纳米颗粒在以上两薄膜材料生长过程中都受到非均匀偏应变作用.对于埋嵌在氧化铝薄膜中的砷化镓纳米颗粒,其生长过程中,纳米颗粒内部受到的应变大于纳米颗粒表面受到的应变;而对于埋嵌在二氧化硅薄膜中的砷化镓纳米颗粒,纳米颗粒内部受到的应变小于纳米颗粒表面受到的应变.选择砷化镓纳米颗粒生长的薄膜材料可以调控纳米颗粒生长过程中的应变场分布,从而进一步调控纳米颗粒的晶格结构和形貌及其物理性能.

New protocol for synthesis of new nanomaterials with continuous 3D networks

Nanostructured materials are attractive to researchers because of their unique optical, magnetic, thermodynamic, electrical, mechanical, and chemical properties. Controlling the morphology of nanomaterials could provide structural systems for a wide range of technologies. As a result, the development of nanofabrication techniques that are convenient and offer design flexibility is the subject of many studies. In order to progress beyond the conventional morphologies, we have turned to hydrogels, which can serve as organic templates for nanoscale objects with continuous microstructures. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the obtained nanonetwork had a continuous microstructure, which was several microns in length and width, with a cross-sectional diameter of 5–10 nm synthesized from a 35-g hexamethylenetetramine solution and a 1.5 g Zn(NO₃)₂ solution, and the cross-sectional diameter can be adjusted from 5 to 200 nm by controlling the concentration of the Zn(NO₃)₂ solution. Our results also showed that the nanostructures based on a superabsorbent polymer template could be controlled easily in terms of size and morphology by changing the concentration of the reaction solution. This protocol could be easily extended to synthesize a variety of nanostructured materials with novel morphologies.     

Complex diagnostics of insulating materials in industrial electrostatics

The possible use of insulating materials is basically determined by their electrical properties (i.e. resistivity, dielectric strength) in many new technologies in several branches of the industry. The application of these materials is strongly determined by the physical and chemical properties resulting from the material structure. During lifetime many chemical processes start up in the material (e.g. decreasing of the content of the additives, breaking of polymeric chains) and the molecular structure of material is altered. The changes are reflected in the physical properties and it can dramatically decrease the applicability of the insulating materials. According to the complexity of the materials and the complexity of the stresses the changing of material properties can only be precisely investigated by complex diagnostic measurements.The use of complex investigation (parallel electrical, chemical, mechanical examinations) of insulating materials is introduced in the paper. Based upon the complex insulation diagnostics and the resulted database of different insulating materials to be applied in industrial electrostatics the possible use of complex non-destructive insulation diagnostics is drawn for practical purposes.     

Nanoscale surface of carbon nanotube fibers for medical applications: Structure and chemistry revealed by TOF-SIMS analysis

Surface structure and related chemistry understanding is a vital element in the design of high biocompatible materials since adsorption and adhesion of biological components are involved. These features are even more important in the case of nanostructured materials such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) fibers. In our preliminary work we synthesised CNTs based fibers for medical applications. This new hybrid system combines polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with CNTs and polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), a biodegradable copolymer. The surface properties of this material are investigated in order to guarantee a biocompatible response. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) was found to be an ideal tool for fiber characterisation owing to its capacity to provide chemical specificity combined with detection limits beyond the reach of techniques previously used. Complementary morphological information is provided by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The corroboration of both data enables us to define the chemistry and structure of this new formulation.

Interstitialcy theory of condensed matter states and its application to non-crystalline metallic materials

A comprehensive review of a novel promising framework for the understanding of non-crystalline metallic materials, i.e., interstitialcy theory of condensed matter states(ITCM), is presented. The background of the ITCM and its basic results for equilibrium/supercooled liquids and glasses are given.

Multiscale structures and phase transitions in metallic glasses:A scattering perspective

Amorphous materials are ubiquitous and widely used in human society, yet their structures are far from being fully understood. Metallic glasses, a new class of amorphous materials, have attracted a great deal of interests due to their exceptional properties. In recent years, our understanding of metallic glasses increases dramatically, thanks to the development of advanced instrumentation, such as in situ x-ray and neutron scattering. In this article, we provide a brief review of recent progress in study of the structure of metallic glasses. In particular, we will emphasize, from the scattering perspective, the multiscale structures of metallic glasses, i.e., short-to-medium range atomic packing, and phase transitions in the supercooled liquid region, e.g., crystallization and liquid-to-liquid phase transition. We will also discuss, based on the understanding of their structures and phase stability, the mechanical and magnetic properties of metallic glasses.

Control over the wettability of amorphous carbon films in a large range from hydrophilicity to super-hydrophobicity

Control of wettability is of significance in industry as well as our daily live. Amorphous carbon (a-C) films with nanostructured surface were deposited on silicon and glass substrates at different substrate temperatures through a magnetron sputtering technique. The microstructures of the a-C films were studied by SEM and XPS, which indicate that the surface of the a-C films deposited at room temperature are smooth due to their much dense sp³-bonded carbon, while they turn to be more porous graphite-like structure with elevated deposition temperature. The water contact angle (CA) measurements show that these pure carbon films exhibit different wettability, ranging from hydrophilicity with CA less than 40° to super-hydrophobicity with CA of 152°, which reveal that the surface wettability of a-C films can be controlled well by using nanostructures with various geometrical and carbon state features. The graphite-like carbon film deposited at 400 °C without any modification exhibits super-hydrophobic properties, due to the combining microstructures of spheres with nanostructures of protuberances and interstitials. It may have great significance on the study of wettability and relevant applications.
